If Only the Whole World was like.....

Today I had to go back to Cleveland - I am babysitting Grosel's for the weekend while they are in Key West! Nice, huh! I wish I could go. The boys went out and did their own thing tonight and are spending the night at their friend's house. I decided to then take Noah and Emilie to Cold Stone Creamery to get ice cream. As we were standing in line, Noah was just amazed of all the choices and the toppings he can add into his ice cream. Well when I go place Noah's order, the one guy that was helping me out said the guy in front of you paid for all your order. I was like what? When I went to say thank you to who ever just paid for all of our ice cream, he was gone! Can you believe that? I have no idea why this guy paid, just told the cashier I'd like to pay for the ladies with the kids ice cream and left a $10 bill. To whoever that nice, kind man was - thank you! There should be alot more people like you in this world! Again, thank you. The kids loved it! Noah was showing off with his french vanilla ice cream with white chocolate chips in it. Prior to that, at dinner I had to hear Noah sing the Pizza Hut commericial while he was eating the new Poppables Pizza - these bites are made for popping! Then he would throw one in his mouth - I swear I didn't want him to choke on one!

Anyhow, I am babysitting all weekend thru Sunday late at night. Then, Monday night I have to be at the hotel so we can have our meeting Tuesday and Wednesday in Cleveland WHQ.

Hope everyone else has some great plans. See ya!

My New Car!!

Tuesday I got my new car for the company! It's a 2006 Pontiac G6. The color is Electric Blue. It's so much better than the picture online when I ordered it. Haven't organized it all with my AG stuff because I had to do credits all this week and its loaded with Roll Wrap and Gift Bags? I swear - do I need anymore of this stuff. I have enough to last a lifetime. So when I come home this weekend to babysit, I'll dump off the product to my mom. Then, when I come back from my District Meeting I am going to have to organize my trunk in case I have a Work With visit with my boss. They look at that kind of stuff. My apartment is a disaster right now. Has work stuff all over, my suitcase not even unpacked from last week, I just finished cleaning the kitchen finally, my dining room table is full of mail from when I was gone, ahhhh!!! I need some time to catch up and then I am leaving tomorrow morning to head back to Cleveland to babysit and then have my District Meeting. Life is never ending. Where's Mary Poppins, when you need her?!? Ha-ha!

Don't You Wish the Answer to all Problems was....

Don't you wish if we were ever in a bind, that we could press "Ctrl" "Alt" "Delete" to fix all of our problems? Life would be too simple.

So I have gained 7.5 lbs in 2 weeks from eating out each meal by being in Cleveland. Not good. My stomach feels so gross. Tomorrow is back to strict WW points. My goodness - I need to be able to fit into those shorts I bought in Maryland by the time the weather gets warm!

This is a picture of Babak and I from the get together they had at their house on St. Patrick's Day. I will have more from my dad's camera when he comes back from Maryland.

I drove back to Chi-land today. Had a long day of work - long day tomorrow as well. I have to work on the District Newsletter tomorrow. Also, I will be back in Cleveland on Friday to babysit. Then I have a District Meeting MOnday thru Wednesday of next week. All I can say, I can't eat out anymore or have warm cookies sitting in the meeting room.

Is it just me or is this year going by so quick - I mean we are already close to April! Almost 1 year of moving out here already. Wow...time flies!

Does life ever stop being hectic?

Wow. It has been one crazy long rollercoaster of a week. Many of you had stated - why I haven't been updating my blog. Well, I came home last weekend just to hang out and then I had a training seminar in Cleveland for the week.

The seminar was so much fun because all of my friends that I got to meet when I was in Cleveland for the last one was in town. We went out to eat every night - including one night we went to Braso Brazilian Steakhouse - which was so good. If you have never been to a place like this, you have to try it. Bring a hungry stomach because its soo much good food and meat just comes flying every which direction. A shout out to my AG gang - Tina, Jeanne, Arron, Jennifer, Matt a.k.a "Dallas", and Gail! We had some interesting Canadians join our group this time around! Fun to learn stuff from them - and then the one guy, we won't mention names drove us all crazy. Please pray that I get promoted before him! He is way too cocky and kisses butt beyond anyone I even know.

Okay, so eating all the good food all week, passing up my WW points before the week even started. Then, after my meeting I flew out to Maryland to see my family and because its the Iranian New Year on MOnday. I won't be there for it because I have to work, but I did go and visit family. I saw my cousin Saba before she headed back to Arizona! Hey Saba - hope its nice and warm in Arizona! Saw Babak and Melanie and of course, Pinot! It was good seeing you both! Good Luck with the graduate schools and good luck Melanie on your job...hope the next few weeks are strong selling weeks for you. Pinot - seeing you run in the back yard at Aunt Sherry's house was the funniest thing! Muahs!

Spent time with Grandma - she said she would come visit me when I got a house! But I would have to make her some Iranian food one day. I have to have someone teach me how to make Iranian rice though.

The day I was leaving I stopped at my other Aunt's house - Aunt Sholeh. She made some good fish and rice. And she stopped at the Iranian store for me and got me my favorite cookies from there. The raisin ones...I so want the recipe for these if anyone has it!

I am heading back with Mark today to Cleveland. Then, tomorrow morning I will head back to Chicago area for work. My boss's father passed away on Thursday, today is the wake - but I can't be there for it. I feel bad. I will be back in Cleveland next week to babysit all weekend for Grosel's. Then, Monday thru Wednesday I have a district meeting in Cleveland. I can't wait. I don't have to take the bus trip. I already got a sneak peak of what we will be seeing next week. Let me just say, we will rock Hallmark out of business!

Okay, I'll have some pictures and on that on my next blog. But I am back and in action! Leave me any posts if you want! I love the comments.
